Those Dang Teeth

Noah was an easy teether. He drooled {a lot!}, but that was it. He never cried or fussed due to his teeth.

Well...Leah's teeth are making her miserable! She has had five teeth for five months. When those teeth came in, she was just quiet and didn't open her mouth at all until her teeth came in. Once they were in, she was back to her happy, giggly little self. WELL, the past month has been a nightmare...for her AND me {and Doug and Noah too!}. She cries, and cries, and whines, and screams {my poor ears}, and cries some more...because of those dang teeth! If you look in her mouth, which is not something I do often because it just sets her off, you can see three teeth on the verge of coming through. BUT they have been like that forever....why oh why, for my own sanity, will they not just burst through and put us all out of our misery! I just feel so badly for this little girl...she is so uncomfortable. Oh, and nothing works to ease the pain, which is just delightful! I hope and pray that they come through soon...I want my happy, smiley, giggly little girl back.

Man, oh man, I just want to take the pain away so that I don't have to look at this sad face. It breaks my heart.
She chews her fingers like mad!

Ya...this is the face that goes with the scream. And, yes, it is THAT loud!
